About Canterbury Sport & Spinal Physiotherapy

A physiotherapy clinic that specialises in sports injuries and spinal pain, based at Total Fitness Gym, 403 Montreal Street, in the Christchurch Central City. The clinic is led by Antony Bush, who was a physiotherapist with the New Zealand Winter Olympic lead team and has 20 years' experience in spinal pain and sports injuries.

Sessions are one-on-one and unrushed, for both ACC and private patients. No doctor's referral is needed, and an ACC claim can be started at the clinic. Treatment covers acute injuries, overuse and chronic conditions, and post-operative rehabilitation after surgery such as ACL reconstruction, spinal surgery, fractures, rotator cuff repairs and hip and knee joint replacements. The approach combines hands-on, evidence-based treatment, exercise prescription and self-management strategies, with the aim of helping people understand the cause of their problem. A free eBook called The Back Fix is available to download from the website.
